Five on Friday

Its Five on Friday Time!

ONE: 

I taught George how to eat an ice cream this week! Ha! I never thought about having to teach someone how that, but I was definitely up to the challenge! Thank you Chick-fil-a for  letting us trade in a toy for a free cone!!


TWO:

I took George to a play place called Monkey Joe's and he had a blast! The main thing he wanted to do was ride in a this jeep in the arcade area. He was all about me riding with him too!


THREE:

It looks like the Happy Baby brand is making some fall flavors for tots! George is loving these!


FOUR:

I made this baked pork tenderloin this week and it was so good!! I will post the recipe soon!!

FIVE:

I had my first pumpkin spice latte of the season! I geared up in some cozy leggings and fringy sweater!!

Healthy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies!

To get ready for fall, yesterday I made these healthy pumpkin chocolate chip cookies!! I got this recipe from Jenni over at Blossom To Be Fit and it was a major hit at our house! 

I have been looking for a good cookie recipe that I am happy to give to my child. I have been trying to cut down on processed foods at our house and part of that is getting in the kitchen and trying new things! There have been so many times I have seen a recipe that might have a different ingredient or says "get out your food processor" and I would think "I really don't want to get on my stool and get down the food processor because I really don't want to have to clean it afterwards!" Seriously, that is my reasoning...well I need to GET OVER IT and get my butt up on that stool, get the processor down, then clean it afterwards! The health of my family is a million times more important!   

So lets all get off our rumps and make something better for you and your family! Oh and you should probably start with these cookies! Head over to Jenni's page for the recipe...you will thank me later!! 

The Weekend!

Saturday George and I headed out to the park to blow off some energy! I got a sweaty walking/strolling session in and he got to run around with new friends afterwards! It was a win win! The weather was wonderful!! It makes me so ready for fall to officially be here!

Sunday morning I got in a Cize workout! It is something perfect to do when George is around because he loves to dance! I am still amazed at how sweaty I get when doing this video! I love that I can dance and get some cardio in at the same time! I am definitely not the most coordinated, so I apologize to my neighbors who walk by and see me...but I have so much fun doing it!

This week I have some fun new recipes to try out! This cool weather has me craving pumpkin anything! So that is on the list!!
